Well.. since Patchou doesn't have copyright on it, this sort of stuff can happen. I have a Logitech QuickCam Messenger... that probably is the plus version of my webcam. :happy:

I think Patchou does have copyright on it.

There is specifically an exclamation point (!) after "Plus" in Patchou's trademark, and I think that actually matters... :p

The name "Messenger Plus" without the exclamation is registered to eFax...

I saw it and stared at it for a few moments, its quite strange really, I thought that it may have done some crazy messenger plus! stuff, but then I thought that was dumb, so I posted the picture of it, its quite strange seeing messenger plus wrote on something that you know obviously isn't messenger plus, I got really confused tbh :)...

RE: Logitech Messenger Plus
I have a trademark on "Messenger Plus!" which means that I can legally challenge anyone using this name, even without the exclamation point. For the record, eFax is trying to register this name and they won't succeed (they gave me some troubles two years ago and I'm not about to forget about it :refuck:).

As far as I'm concerned, I don't care about othercompanies using "Messenger Plus" as long as it does not conflict woth my own software. Nobody has anything to earn in that kind of legal issue so I prefer to keep it simple. The only reason why I actually registered a trademark is to defend myself against comapnies like eFax that want to profit from the success of others.

eFax are a company that specializes in modems and stuff I think, click on 'DZ's link to have a look at the stuff that they sell or whatnot...

I didn't think that the characters used when Copyrighting something varied anything to be honest... Don't let them get the name patchou :@... Tis your name, and will stay as your name as long as I live...
